Eubank Jr. Eyes Historic Lagos Fight | Boxing News
Description
Chris Eubank Jr. could be making a dramatic return to the ring this December in Lagos, Nigeria — potentially staging the biggest boxing event on the continent since Ali vs. Foreman. After stepping away since his Conor Benn rematch and dealing with health issues, Eubank Jr. is reportedly excited about the historic African showdown, backed by promoter Dr. Ezekiel Adamu, who’s secured presidential backing and sponsorships. Adamu envisions a legacy-defining fight, bigger than any in Africa in 50 years, with broadcast deals in play from DAZN and Netflix. Finalizing the deal could happen in two weeks — and if it goes ahead, it’s set to recreate the magic of “Rumble in the Jungle” for a new generation.
